Don't look Sallie!!

You'd better not be looking at this Sallie!

This is a desk calendar I have just finished for Sallie to keep at work with her. She's not going to get it until Christmas. I've used a photo of Evie on the cover. Evie is the cat who had kittens last year. She gave her and the kittens up as she was not supposed to have a pet in the house she is renting.
I used a single sheet of card, folded into a 'V' shape to make a stand. The front cover is acetate to protect the top photograph which is printed onto glossy photo paper.
All the pictures of kittens and cats are from clipart on the computer and have been printed onto 6 x 4 matt photo paper. The calendars are from a free download from My Craft Studio resized to fit. The whole thing was bound using my BIA.
